For audio data output, the unidirectional buffers make sure that the audio data can travel only from the 
selected computer to the audio device.  

The  USB  authentication  device  connection  is  on  a  separate  circuit  isolated  from  all  other  TOE  USB 
functions and, after filtering for qualification, has a direct connection path to the selected computer. The 
TOE does not emulate the user authentication device function. 

All Keyboard and Mouse connections are filtered first, and only the authorized devices pre-defined in the 

TOE’s  whitelist 

will  be  allowed.  The  data  input  by  the  authorized  USB  Keyboard  and  Mouse  will  be 

emulated by TOE to USB data for computer sources. 

No data or electrical signals flow between connected computers at any time. Each connected computer 
has its own independent Device Controller, power circuit, and EEPROM. 

No data transits the TOE when the TOE is powered off or when the TOE is in a failure state. 

6.2.3

 

FDP_CDS_EXT.1 

 Connected Displays Supported  

The TOE supports connected displays from a single source video feed (either single-head or multi-head). 
Because of this, the single selected source video feed is always the same channel and indication of the 
selected channel is through the channel selection LEDs on the TOE chassis. 

The  DisplayPort  models  GCS1412TAA4C,  GCS1414TAA4C,  and  GCS1418TAA4C  each  support  one 
connected  display.  While  GCS1422TAA4C,  GCS1424TAA4C,  and  GCS1428TAA4C  each  support  two 
connected displays at a time. 

The  HDMI  models  GCS1312TAA4C  and  GCS1314TAA4C  each  support  one  connected  display.  While 
GCS1322TAA4C and GCS1324TAA4C each support two connected displays at a time. 

The  DVI  models  GCS1212TAA4C,  GCS1214TAA4C,  and  GCS1218TAA4C  each  support  one  connected 
display. While GCS1222TAA4C, GCS1224TAA4C, and GCS1228TAA4C each support two connected displays 
at a time. 

6.2.4

 

FDP_FIL_EXT.1/KM 

 Device Filtering (Keyboard/Mouse); FDP_PDC_EXT.3/KM 

 

Authorized Connection Protocols (Keyboard/Mouse) 

The TOE supports authorized USB keyboard and mouse peripherals as defined in 

Table 13: Supported 

protocols  by  port

  below.  Keyboard/mouse  peripherals  are  filtered  and  emulated.  Device  filtering  for 

keyboard/mouse  interfaces  is  configurable.  Keyboard/mouse  blacklisted  devices  are  unauthorized 
devices.  Whitelisted  devices  are  authorized  devices  for  the  keyboard/mouse  interfaces  in  peripheral 
device connections. The TOE does not define any whitelisted devices that are also blacklisted devices. The 
KVM  includes  a  built  in  allowed  list  (whitelist)  for  the  USB  Keyboard/  Mouse  Ports.  Only  the  default-
authorized devices can be blacklisted by the administrator for the USB Keyboard/Mouse Ports. The USB 
Keyboard/Mouse Ports do not 

support a “whitelist” function.

 

The  configurable  HID  device  function  enables  authorized  administrators  to  assign  a  blacklist  for  HID 
devices.  To  blacklist  a  keyboard/mouse  device,  the  admin  connects  the  HID  device  that  they  want 
blacklisted directly to the Mouse Port (do not connect it to the KVM via a USB hub), and performs the 
configuration via administrator functions. After configuration, the blacklisted HID device will be rejected
